Week 4 - 5K Training - Day 2!

I have been sidelined by sickness. Not mine, my kids'. I was supposed to run yesterday but I could not get to the gym because my boys were not feeling well. Due to a busy schedule, I could not work out last night. Tonight does not look good either because the kids have their basketball award ceremony tonight. I want them to go if everyone is healthy enough. My poor little 4 1/2 year old (the Prince) had a temperature of 102.7 yesterday. His temperature is better today (100.7) but it is still a temperature so I am not sending him to pre-school. I cannot work out at lunch when DadOf3 is home because I have to run to the church to make copies of the newsletter I write once a month for MOPS.

I re-read this and it all sounds like excuses. Truth be told I am really bummed. I am hoping to get to run on Friday night and Saturday afternoon. Maybe I will try running outside after hearing from Pam that running outside is very invigorating and more challenging than on the treadmill.

I really do not want to have to repeat this week. I am going to set a new goal:

Run Friday night at home and run outside (or treadmill) Saturday afternoon.
